<p>High efficiency, large scale, stationary computing systems – supercomputers and data centers – are becoming increasingly important due to the movement of data storage and processing onto remote cloud servers. This book is dedicated to a technology particularly appropriate for this application – superconductive electronics, in particular, rapid single flux quantum circuits. The primary purpose of this book is to introduce and systematize recent developments in superconductive electronics into a cohesive whole to support the further development of large scale computing systems.</p><p> </p>A brief background into the physics of superconductivity and the operation of common superconductive devices is provided, followed by an introduction into different superconductive logic families, including the logic gates, interconnect, and bias current distribution. Synchronization, fabrication, and electronic design automation methodologies are presented, reviewing both widely established concepts and techniques as well as recent approaches. Issues related to memory, synchronization, interconnects, coupling noise, bias networks, signal interfaces, and deep scaling of superconductive structures and design for testability are described, and models, expressions, circuits, algorithms, and design methodologies are discussed and placed in context. The aim of this book is to provide insight and engineering intuition into the design of large scale digital superconductive circuits and systems.<p></p><ul><li>Reviews modern research in the field of superconductive digital electronics, including novel devices and approaches;</li><li>Provides comprehensive background on pertinent topics;</li><li>Describes prospective methodologies for large scale integration of superconductive circuits.</li></ul><p></p><p></p><p></p><p><br></p>
